binkytexas's Journal, 02 November 2019

I love candles in cool weather. Sitting here with the lights off and 4 candles burning.

Binky-puppy is too little to make it onto the couch by herself. We have little stairs so she can get up by herself. Sitting here cuddling together under a blankie.

Made cabbage rolls tonight. Combined mother's and grandmother's recipes (too much butter!) with online recipes. Was very fulfilling. What is it about passed loved one's recipes that bring us comfort? I feel like they are smiling down from heaven.

Onward, friends!

I love cabbage rolls too, but I'm too lazy to make them. May I come over and have some of yours? 💚💜💛

I love candles and scented sprinkles I put in a warmer. I only want to use in when my house is immaculate. Probably why I've had the same jar of sprinkles for a year. 😆 never clean enough. Don't want to use it with backpacks and shoes all over. 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

My roommate has a few warmers...funny, but for someone with little or no allergies I am SO SENSITIVE to those little wax blocks. I can only tolerate types like "Scentcy" (sp?) or other pricey ones. The cheapo ones you can buy make my eyes water and I start to sneeze. Has to be the pricey ones. Shirfleur 1, we are so poor we don't even have a dining room table. We use the dining area as an office. I would be embarrassed to have you dine here eating on TV trays or the coffee table...but we really should get together sometime as we are neighbors!!!!

Binky- Me too!! I cannot use the wax unless it's scentsy. or however you spell it. I have sprinkles from a company called Pink Zebra and I can use those without issues, too- but otherwise it is headaches and irritation for me as well.

Amen so sweet. I use a lot of family recipes, especially during holidays. my children always remember who made what, and where each recipe came from. We had dinner at church a few months back. tables full of food. my son said that's my mama's pie, casserole, even the slaw out of 3 different ones.

Sweet Georgia Peaches...how funny that you mention church meals. My grandmother died this summer at the age of 104. Probably the last time I will travel to Colorado and Nebraska in my life. Anyway, the church held a memorial meal in honor of my grandmother and at least 25 of the 50 women bringing food were relatives of mine. SO MUCH comfort food reminiscent of my childhood...especially broccoli/cauliflower salad. For 3 weeks after the funeral I HAD to make broccoli/cauliflower salad with homemade buttermilk ranch. It was a comfort thing.
